Go Green NOLA

The Go Green NOLA website grabbed my attention because it incorporates two of my interests [a] The Environment and [b] New Orleans.

Go Green NOLA (http://gogreennola.org) is a guide for the New Orleans community on how to build and live in a green and sustainable way. The site covers topics from green building designs to alternative fuels. It is a resource for local green events and Louisiana Farmer's Markets. Already have a green thumb? Check out their community gardens page as well as Gardening Green 101 page for some pointers.

Check it out, let me know what you think in the comments down below. And while you're on a green streak, check out carbonneutral.2truth.com for a line of products with an environmental messages printed on shirts, tote bags, coffee mugs, stickers and other items.

light NYC for Mardi Gras in 2008

In 2006 this blog was instrumental in getting the Empire State Building to shine in Mardi Gras colors over New York as a salute to the folks impacted by Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita. My official positive comment on why the Empire State Bldg ignored our request in 2007 is, "Our request came in too late for the ESB to process our request so lets get an early jump on 2008!"

Click on over to New Orleans Stuff, there is an effort underway to get the Empire State Building to shine in Purple-Green-Gold on Fat Tuesday. http://neworleansstuff.blogspot.com/

The ESB asks for a formal request to be FAXed or emailed back. I filled out the paperwork for 2006, it doesn't take too long and the folks still rebuilding after storms in Louisiana will feel remembered on Fat Tuesday!
